Hello, fantastic people!
My name is Erdem Ankarali. I am the owner and founder of Virtue Fitness & Health coaching company. I help busy professionals create life-transforming fitness and wellness habits. I am a certified personal trainer and weight loss specialist.
I chose to work with busy professionals because I worked in the hospitality industry for almost twelve years. I was too tired of standing and doing repetitive movements all day while dealing with stressful environments. A stressful job can break our body and soul.
I used to be a very skinny kid and hated my body image. I was too embarrassed to sit shirtless at the beach. I was acting too confident, but I was insecure in my skin deep down. Our body image and the way we see ourselves determine self-confidence.
I started lifting weights. I did not have any friends to work out with or a trainer to teach me. Being alone in this journey built my mental toughness. I moved to the U.S in 2017, and one year later, I got an injury by deadlifting. I lost 30lbs; I lost my health and confidence. This situation inspired me to become a fitness business owner.
